Fermi’s Now Deeper Study of the High-Energy Cosmos
This compilation summarizes the wide range of science from the first five years of NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. Fermi is a NASA observatory designed to reveal the high-energy universe in never-before-seen detail. Launched in 2008, Fermi continues to give astronomers a unique tool for exploring high-energy processes associated with solar flares, spinning neutron stars,…

Quantum Computing and Evolution?
The unique capability of quantum mechanics to evolve alternative possibilities in parallel is appealing and over the years a number of quantum algorithms have been developed offering great computational benefits. Systems coupled to the environment lose quantum coherence quickly and realization of schemes based on unitarity might be impossible. Recent discovery of room temperature quantum…

Swarm
ESA’s magnetic field mission Swarm. A European Space Agency mission to investigate the Earth’s magnetic field in unprecedented detail is due to be launched later this year. Without our planets protective magnetic field, life on our planet would struggle to survive. The Swarm mission consisting of three identical satellites will be used to study all…

The Internet
What is the Future of the Internet I plug into the electrical plugin and receive all my information stored on the information grid. There is evolving aspect with which communication is being used, bought and directed as to how this information is contained? How Governments seek to control? How Companies would value our access too?…

A Universe on the Other Side
“I think people thought that the universe was smaller, yet discoveries in the last century have found there are black holes everywhere, billions of black holes in our universe and each may produce a universe on the other side, like an infinite tree,” he said. – See more at: New Hit Film ‘Gravity’ Speaks to…

The Third Dimension of Cassiopeia A
There are certain advancements when one sees in a geometrical sense as to understand the Supernova in all it’s glory. So there are many materialistic things with which we can identify as to the course and direction with regard to it’s evolution. Image credit: NASA/CXC/SAO One of the most famous objects in the sky –…

More on Spherical Cows
Hubble Heritage Project Of course I am always drawn toward the reason for why the universe does certain things and I greatly appreciate how a scientist might explain this to me in the most simplest form, which leaves no doubts. But I do not think they can do that without explaining the basis of the…
